TO ALL WHOM IT MAY CONCERN:

.Be it known that I, ALBERT BROWN, of Troy, in the county of Renssalaer,and State of New York, have invented an Improved Hot-Water Reservoir forCooking-Stoves; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full andexact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanyingdrawings, making part of this spe,cification-' Figure 1 being a central,vertical section of my improved reservoir, showing also the manner ofconnecting it with a cooking-stove.

Figure 2, a similar section of the reservoir, showing the mode ofattaching it to a cooking-stove in connection with a warming-closet.

Figure 3, 21. top view of the reservoir alone. I

Figured, a top view of the warming-closet, showing the method ofsecuring it in place under the reservoir and behind the stove.

Like letters designate corresponding parts in all of the figures.

I construct the reservoir B with. a descending or driving-flue, 0,inside thereof, extending; from the top down near to the bottom, and atthe bottom communicating with a flue, D, which preferably ascends to thetop again to the eXit-pipef, as shown, but might pass out at one side ofthe reservoir. These two tlues, as repre= sented, are separated by apartition-plate, a. V I I On the top of the reservoir, also, is ahorizontal flue, E, which extends over the flues C D and communicateswith them. It has a passage through the division-plate c, closed orregulated by a damper or valve, (1,.

so that the draught from the stove may be made to pass down through theflueC and up or out through the flue D, or pass directly along throughthe flue E to the exit-pipef.

The reservoir may be conveniently arranged behind the stove A, and thefine E, which projects forward from the body of the reservoir, furnishesthe means of securing the reservoir in place.

The lower plate, I), of the flue has an opening in it, fitting over thestove-pipe projection on thimble, a, of the stove, as represented infig. 1, thereby suspending the reservoir, which need not have any othersupport, except, if desired, a stay projection, h, between it and theback of the stove for it to bear against. 7

In the top plate of the flue E is formed a hole, -g, for the receptionof a boiler or other utensil to cook or warm with, or there may be morethan one, thus increasing the cooking capacity and convenience of thestove. Thisaperture also serves to give access to the inside of thereservoir-fines.

I arrange the reservoir also in connection with a warming-closet, Gr,behind the stove, as shown in fig. 2. The closet is situated under thereservoir, having legs, Z l, by which itlrests on the floor. Thereservoir may rest on the closet and be wholly or partially supportedthereby. 'This arrangement raises the reservoir higher than without thewarming-closet, as shown; but it is connected similarly with the stoveby simply placing a short pipe, 1, between thestove thimble a and theflue E of the reservoir, as shown. I -The closet G may conform to theback-plate m oftho stove, and have projecting ilanches, 1) p, at itsedges to slide and be held in grooves, n n, belonging to the stove, asindicated in fig. 4.

What I claim as my invention, and desire tosec'ure by Letters Patent,is-'-' I A hotwater reservoir, having a descending or driving-fluetherein, substantially as and for the purpose herein specified. v A

I also claim the projecting horizontal ilue E, for forming a connectionbetween the stove and reservoir-fines and exit-pipe thereof,substantially as set forth.

, I'also claim the suspension of the reservoir by the stove-pipeprojection or thimble, substantially as described and as represented infig. 1.

I also claim the boiler-hole or holes g over the flue-space E, incombination with the-hot-water reservoir, substantially as set forth.

The above specification signed by me, this 21st day of May, 1868.

' ALBERT BROWN.
